In this study, we developed a method to simplify the analysis of complex Piping and
Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) on ships. By converting P&IDs into a graph format, we …

This study addresses challenges in ship arrangement design by proposing an automated
pipe routing method in ship unit modules. Currently, designers rely on experience, lacking …

The traditional approach to ship pipeline programming often involves describing and
calculating based on text files. This method tends to be error-prone and time-consuming …

This study is dedicated to the development of an advanced ship piping network
programming tool to address the challenges faced by traditional text-based design and …

The shipbuilding industry plays a pivotal role in national strategic security and economic
development, and one critical challenge is the pipeline layout design problem. It …

ABSTRACT A ship is composed of many complicated systems. Each system also consists of
various machinery, pipes, valves, sensors, cables, etc.. In the basic and detailed design …

Pipe routing during the design process of a ship depends on the design experience or
knowledge of experts. In this study, an expert system that can systematize expert knowledge …

Ongoing development of the US Navy's LEAPS data repository, research exploring the use
of networks in ship system design by the Naval International Cooperative Opportunities in …

As a result of increased pressure to reduce cost and delivery times of modern ships and
submarines, many shipyards are revising their processes and toolsets to optimize the …

Despite the availability of 3D CAD systems, the designers in shipyards still use 2D CAD
systems because of the need to produce drawings rapidly and a shortage of labor. The …
